IS THERE ANY TReaE Res' ?l
NEW AND IMPORTANT oPINI0Ns E. OF PULMONARY EXPERTS 1 Z.
Can the Universal Consumption bs \ Successfully Treatedi

Dr. Borgeon, leading French doctor,
 has new treatment for consump ion.
 He Rlves an enema of carbonic acid sulphurettcd hydrogen gases, the latter gas carrying the former into every part of the throat and lungs.
 This treatment, too is directed at ehects--the caus. remains undisturbed,
 What this caus eis has been stated by perhaps the highest pulmonary authority Tn the world, |. c., the Brompton Hos. pital for Consumptives, in London, Eng.
 This malady every year carries of from one-seventh to one-tifth of the entire population of Englandl
 Dr. Payne, MD, M.R.C.P., London, is authority for this statement.
 The same or greater proportion of deaths obtains in America.
 Dr. Payne also says that one-half the total number of deaths from all other causes have seeds of this disease in the system which only require some irritant to developl
 Dr. Hermann Brehmer, an eminent German authority, says that consump- ton is caused by deficient nutrition of the lungs, by poor blood
 These authorities cannot be disputed. The medical world recognizes them. The uric acid is the irritant in the blood that causes the development of the seeds which Dr. Brehmer says lie dormant in the blood.
 Every particle of blood which passes through the lungs and heart, also goes through the kidneys, and if they are in the least deranged they cannot rid the blood of it's killing poison. The thousand little hair-like sewer tubes of the kidneys very easily get blocked up and diseased; and when they do, they corrupt instead of purifying the blood. Kidney disease may exist, and yet no pain occur in that organ, because 1t is deficient in nerves of sensation.
 Dip your finger in acid every day and 1t soon testers and is destroyed. Send acid poisoned blood through the lungs every second, and they soon give way.
 The Brompton Hospital investigation showed that 52 per cent. of the victims of consumption were afflicted with de- ranged kidneys, which permitted the uric acid poison to remain in the blood and irritate the lungs. This uric acid is al- ways fighting every vital organ, and if there be any inherent weakness in the lungs 1t inevitably causes pneumonia, cough and consumption.
 The real cause of pulmonary troubles being so authoritatively shown to be faulty even though unsuspected action of the kidneys, explains why, in order to master the dreaded consumption, one must rid the blood of the uric acid irri- tant which intlames and burns up the lung substance. For this purpose there IS nothing equal to that great specific, Warmers safe cure. This remedy has now the favor of medical men all over the world purely on it's merits. We have no doubt that if the kidneys are kept in natural action, consumption and great many other diseases, caused by uric acid, will not only be cured but will be pre- vented.
 When the kidney is healthy, no albu- men appears in the water, but albumen is found in the water of r.ore than half of those who die of consumption!
 This, then, is the condition of things that always precedes consur, ptioif: First, weakened kidneys; second, re- talned uric acid, poisoning the blood; third, the development of disease in the lungs by the irritant acids passing through them. Then there is little cough in the morning; soon thick, yellow matter is spit up, followed by loss of flesh and strength, with dreadful night sweats; and when the patient goes to his school physician for help, he is put on cod-liver oil which his stomach, weak ened also by uric acid in the blood, can not digest. Because there is no pain present in the kidneys, the patient does not think they are affected but the kid. ney acid is doing its work every minute every hour, day and night, and by-and-by he disease of the lungs has advanced lntil pus is developed, then come hemor Images, and at last the glassy stare which denotes that the end is nearl
 A post-mortem examination of such ,ases shows that the terrible uric acid las completely destroyed the substance ,f the lung.
 It is impossible to cure lung disease when the blood is poisoned with uric
